What's the absolutely worst thing you saw on MSM
for 2007 to date.

Mine was that CNN hack having a public orgasm as she covered Bush at the New York Stock Exchange.

1. Maybe Saddam's execution in general.
Too much veiled gloating.

5. True but it's not unusual
Edited on Tue Feb-20-07 06:02 PM by malaise
Never had I seen a so called reporter behave like that lunatic on CNN.
Still the Anna crap is why I asked the question. I will not watch it.

Add.

6. I flipped on Insanity and Colmes for a minute
And there was a middle eastern "expert" talking about how the jihadists were brainwashed. At the same time they had on the screen while she was talking a tape of footage switching back and forth from "terrorists" training and then to Islamic prayer scenes. How Ironic that FOX was talking about BRAINWASHING while they were doing the exact same thing.

7. Fox is self-censored in our home
We watched once from its inception - when Cheney was interviewed after the hunting shooting. Hubby and I hate Fox.

9. What exactly happened at the stock exchange?
I don't watch corporate TV. More details would be nice.

11. We had a thread on Susan Lisovicz's disgusting
coverage of Bush at the New YOrk Stock Exchange. Wish I could find this on UTube. It was unbelievably bad. Here's a transcript from CNN.

13. Thanks
That must have been excruciating to watch, especially in tandem with Kyra. Kyra's one of the original "I want to have bush's baby" reporters from back in 2000.

17. It was really, really bad
Edited on Tue Feb-20-07 06:45 PM by malaise
I have never seen fawning like that on television. She was like a giddy thirteen year old about to meet a pop star.

14. Faux and Friends
Didnt quite catch it, but Brian was talking about Hillary, and said something under his breath about not trusting her, the camera then panned to Steve Douchebag, and he had a big sleazy smile on his face.

15. Gibson reporting Obama attended a radical Muslim school
The story was debunked yet nothing happens to that swine. If it were Dan Rather there would've been a big uproar. But then again it's probably because no one considers Gibson to be a journalist at all.

19. I agree with that "rock groupie" behavior being the most nauseating.
I was truly appalled. I don't watch Faux - and avoid Tucker Carlson, Glen Beck, and Pulla Tooth like the plague.
